Bonus Story – The Maid’s Work (2/2)

「By the way, I have something to ask you ever since」

「Ask me?」

I wonder what it was? Does Delfina-san have something to ask someone like me.

「You, can you work in my place?」

「Eh?」

「In short, I’m scouting you. What do you think?」

「S-S-S-S-S-Scout desu ka?」

「Why are you panicking that much?」

「B-Because scouting someone like me」

「I have a motto, that I would not do business that has a loss」

「But, I have work in this mansion……」

「I will send ten maids to the mansion instead. With that at least that, they would be able to cover up your job」

「Ten?」

I wonder why it was ten. Does it mean something.

「I’m sorry」

I apologized. It was a very grateful deal, but I cannot accept it.

「I am Master’s slave maid after all」

「Is that so. That’s too bad. Well, I wasn’t thinking that I can steal someone from him……I’m also like that myself though」

Delfina-san mumbled something in the end. I could not hear it properly, but her lips were smiling, so it was probably a happy thing desu.

「Sorry for intruding. I’ll come by the evening again」

「Yes! Please take care」

I made a bow, and sent off Delfina-san.

I became alone, counted the work left with my fingers.

I was done cleaning, I was done washing clothes.

I already finished ordering food ingredients to Lucas-san, work other than that is…….

I know, I should chop the firewood. I prepared the bath for Helen-san, so the remaining left is only a few.

I went to the garden, and chopped firewood.

To make sure that it would be okay anytime, I chopped the firewood so it can be used anytime.

After chopping firewood, it was already evening.

The day’s end was getting closer.

「It was about time that Master would come back」

I returned to my room in a hurry.

The most important job is remaining right now.

I took the brush that Master gave me, and groomed my fur.

Carefully, and combing them delicately, I arranged its texture.

I combed it delicately, mixed air in.

I used the magic powder that I bought from the pay that Master gave me, and made my fur *FuwaFuwa*.

I made my whole body clean, and made it *FuwaFuwa*.

With this, it is alright for Master to come back anytime.

「I’m back〜」

「ーー!」

Instance, my heart throbbed, it was a familiar voice.

I stood up quickly, and took a deep breath.

Calm down, calm down, me.

After taking a deep breath, I went towards the entrance.

Master was there.

「Welcome home, Master」

「I’m back, Miu」

Master said that, and spread both of his hands.

*Dokin* .

My heart throbbed quickly again. It was faster than earlier.

Just as usual, I approached Master who was making a gesture “Come here, come here”

「I’m back, Miu」

Master said that again, hugged and *MofuMofu*-d me.

*MofuMofu*, *MofuMofu*.

It’s the Welcome Back *MofuMofu* desu.

Looks like Master who *MofuMofu*-d me got satisfied.

Able to do the most important work, I was, enveloped by pure happiness.
